Continued deterioration of amateur athletics. Now they can get a cut of the money the BIG schools are making off of them? In addition to NIL? These kids are going to be making millions.
Their educations should no longer be free. In fact, they should not even bother going to school and these teams should just disassociate with the term 'college' or 'university' in general.
This is a disgrace. I've done a 180. I am completely against NIL and college kids making money. Wish they didn't get a cent.
If this continues, I'm probably going to give up on college sports and just follow the pro leagues. I can't deal with 80% of the basketball team being replaced every year.

He commited to Cortland
There is a strong Ukrainian community there, so maybe some benefit in that sense. They also are a winning program so sure that helps too.

Speaking for the Millenials here you could reference a pop singer with a song about being a geine in a bottle.
I was going to mention Christina but wasn't sure who'd get the reference hah.

The lot on Grant & Phillips off Madison Ave has always been free and empty. Been a while, so do not know if still the case.
Can also get into this lot by empire plaza ramp. Go all the way around the plaza U-ramp; do not enter any of the Plaza ramps. There are 2 or 3 gates on each side of the U. Just after the last entrance is a ramp into the GrantPhillips Garage. Also an entrance on Phillips off Madison.
Not sure the name of this garage. And if anyone knows the name and/or if still free. PLEASE feel free to correct this postGrand St Lot. I don't remember if it is free last time I was there. I used to park at that garage for photographic vehicle/motorcycle shots of the Empire State Plaza.

We used to park next to the Albany Museum on Madison Ave and walk through the Concourse to the MVP arena.
That's actually genius too! Especially in bad weather.

Thank you Eli for your help.
No problem! I tried to park close to S. Pearl so it was a quick exit to leave. Right on S. Pearl, right on Madison, then get on 787. Badaboom badabing!

I used to park on Herkimer St or Westerlo St and walk to the arena. It's the streets between the South Mall Arterial and DMV.

It's free agency is what this is. This is no longer about kids, their educations and being student athletes. This is a true semi-pro thing now and lower tier programs are farm teams for bigger programs.
I was all for kids making $600 to be part of EA College Football 25 but now I think they shouldn't get a dime and NIL has ruined college sports.
Having a '4 year' kid is going to be the exception now, not the rule.

Lol…what a joke
Amica is not a game changer for us - guy couldn't stay on the court unfortunately. While he did play 19 games this year, before that he had only played 10 games in 2 years. 1.4ppg is going to be easy to replace.

You have Filien as departed but I thought he has another year of eligibility.
Albany lists him as a graduate student for 23-24 - or is this case of the COVID year getting one more go at it?

Thanks DP!

Hey DK, I know it's your program now, but maybe you can learn something from our previous coach:
Saint Rose womens also capped the year ranked first in the country in defensive points allowed per game, defensive field goal percentage, and defensive three-point field goal percentage.
To paraphrase Allen Iverson:
"I know I'm supposed to be there, I know I'm supposed to lead by example, I know that. And I'm not shoving it aside like it don't mean anything. I know it's important. I do. I honestly do. But we're talking about defense, man. What are we talking about? Defense? We're talking about defense, man!
We're talking about defense! We're talking about defense... We ain't talking about the game! We're talking about defense, man! When you come to the arena, and you see me coach... You see me coach, don't you?"-
